Jet Edge iP60-30 waterjet pump available from Aquablast

Jet Edge has introduced its iP60-30 4,100 bar, 22 kW hydraulic waterjet intensifier pump. Available in the UK from Aquablast, the pump is designed for waterjet shops that desire the reliability of a hydraulic intensifier pump, but which have limited power. The iP60-30 draws only 37 full load Amps at 460 VAC (60 Hz) or 74 full load Amps at 230 VAC (60 Hz).

The pump is able to provide 2.3 l/m of water at a continuous operating pressure of 3,800 bar. Like all Jet Edge intensifier pumps, the iP60-30 features a tie-rod design that eliminates threads on the high pressure cylinders, end caps and hydraulic cylinders. This reduces the likelihood of cracking and increases component life, says Jet Edge. Furthermore, matched metal components prevent the galling of hydraulic components.

The iP60-30 includes a hydraulic accumulator that is said to provide smoother hydraulic pressure, reduce spikes and prolong pump life.
